Rated Ambience - 5star
Food - exemplary- 5star
Service - 5star
Expensive - yes (worth it) We headed out for a family dinner and were craving to have some Japanese cuisine. Decided to try Isakaya. Didn't regret the decision to be here. Very friendly and helpful services who knew how to be around at the correct time for further assistance.
Ordered : spicy vegetable maki - delicious is not the correct word for it
Our starters were - izakaya explosion maki with prawns ????
spicy endamame - we are complete fans of this and ordered thrice ????
For main course we decided to try - salmon tepenyaki with chicken fried rice - Mouth watering. Salmon well cooked and served piping hot. The meal is never complete without dessert, so went with : Mango Mochi, Chocolate bomb and couldnt resist ordering a last dessert - ????strawberry mochi.
A lovely restaurant. Also liked the #izakayawasabigirl concept ! She was the lady serving wasabi to the guest as and when required. ????????

Rated Eating at izakaya was an experience to say the least. We ordered the izakaya explosion, the crab California, teppanyaki and ended the night with a chocolate and maccha lava cake which were all amazing. Really good maki rolls here. We threw back a couple of great cocktails while being front and center at the teppanyaki station and interacting with the chef. There's a sake cart that rolls around with an amazing sale expert who gives you insight on the different types of sake while you try each one. Did I mention that they also have a wasabi girl that dresses in a green outfit and grates fresh wasabi for you on command ? Yes they have that too. Overall a great place to pick for dinner, couldn't be happier that we went here :))

Rated Super cool, fun, quirky restaurant with incredible staff and even better food. We went here are and were greeted kindly, and treated with the kindest service. A highlight was the setting- amazing atmosphere and super cool menus! However, the food was even better and topped the entire experience. Was a little pricey, however worth the experience.

Rated Being happily married, starting work at 7:45am, living over in JVC and being a responsible dog owner has curtailed my Ladies Night activities over the past few months. However, in understanding that my readers would probably be interested to know about some of the less-known offerings out there, I thought I’d go check out Izakaya (JW Marquis Marriott’s casual Japanese restaurant) with a good friend of mine, to see what their new Sushi & Bubbly Tuesday offering could present. ...Read full post on theemireati.com

Rated WASABI GIRL! This is what you hear guests shouting hwhen you enter this extra-quirky; very anime feel Japanese restaurant. The ambiance is very retro-Japanese and yes classy at the same time. We went there for my birthday celebrations and quickly realized there were people from both the casual walk-ins to those quite dressed up. I would say semi-formal is the way to go but don’t hesitate to walk in with your shorts! We had specifically gone for the teppanyaki as my favourite 2 places closed a while ago (Teppanyaki at Ramada Hotel and Tokyo at Emirates Towers) and I haven’t been able to find a decent place. Till now. We tried the teppanyaki set menu and then ordered a few extras on the side and were blown away. The sashimi was fresh and with the perfect amount of seasoning. To call for Wasabi, you have to literally call the highlighter-green-haired girl who looks like she has jumped out of a Japanese cartoon by shouting “Wasabi Girl”. Their Teppanyaki was out of this world; we weren’t able to see the ‘show’ as my little one slept so we had to manage at a table close by but the food spoke volumes. Well prepared chicken and prawns, succulent and seasoned to perfection. The fried rice was just the right density had a sort of charcoal-y feel to it, being cooked on a live grill et all - and yes my mouth is watering as I type this, it was that good. The chef even threw in some complimentary noodles which was really good as well. Now for the bad. The wait between starters and mains was quite long. I want to say 30 mins but it was much longer and we had to walk around a bit to keep from feeling hungry! The staff were well aware as there was some problem and apologized profusely and in fact so did the chef; so all was forgiven. It is something that has dampened this rating a little; but it will definitely be on the list of my favourite places to eat!! One note; the staff was amazeballs. Wish I took more pictures tho!

Rated Very stylish Japanese and sushi restaurant. Though it is not 100% in line with Japanese taste, we can say that sushi here is better than any other sushi restaurant in Dubai apart from TOMO and possibly UMI. Those who would like to taste fresh sushi in the middle of Dubai, this restaurant will absolutely be one of the best choices.

Rated Had a lovely dinner and tried the place for the first time. Enjoyed the Wasabi Girl concept as she looks very cute and prepares fresh wasabi in front of you :) The cocktails design is amazing and marked up to the details. The most exciting that the Chef comes to you and asks how are the sushi. He even prepared for us special Chef maki with ingredients that we like. Memorable time and for sure will be back. Thank you guys and keep up the lovely theme
